First GOES-14 Images (sub-sampled) Note the ‘brighter’ GOES-14 visible image From NOAA ASPB
GOES-12 (for comparison) Note the sub-satellite points are different From NOAA ASPB
GOES-14 Sounder! Note clean signal, especially bands 1, 2, 12 and 15.
GOES-12 Sounder Data has been remapped to a common projection.
